When I was seeing the problem during my rsync experiments I tried leaving things alone for quite a long time, without them clearing. Since we don't have a clue at the moment as to the cause it's hard to do any serious troubleshooting. I assume it has something to do with kio-slaves (something I know nothing about) because when that happens I can't run Dolphin or KWrite or a number of other applications. They all open with a blank grey screen. Working without a file manager is extremely slow ;-) Anne -- New to KDE Software? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
